Respiratory pathogen spectrum in pulmonary exacerbation of bronchiectasis in adults and its association with disease severity

To determine the pattern of respiratory pathogens at bronchiectasis exacerbation and its associations with disease severity. A total of 119 steady-state bronchiectasis patients [42 males, 77 females, age range 19 to 74 years, mean age (45±14)years], diagnosed by a compatible history combined with ev...

Shrnutí:To determine the pattern of respiratory pathogens at bronchiectasis exacerbation and its associations with disease severity. A total of 119 steady-state bronchiectasis patients [42 males, 77 females, age range 19 to 74 years, mean age (45±14)years], diagnosed by a compatible history combined with evidence of bronchial dilatation on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), were recruited prospectively from out-patient clinics in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between September 2012 and March 2013. A comprehensive history taking, radiologic appearance, spirometry, sputum bacterial culture and 16 respiratory viruses in nasopharyngeal swabs and sputum samples by PCR assays were collected at steady-state bronchiectasis. All bronchiectasis patients were followed up one year and assessed for bacteriology, virology and systemic inflammatory indices [including white blood cell, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6, 8 and tumor necrosis factor-α] during bronchiectasis exacerbation.
